IKR? I'm sure part of the reason it isn't even an established cliche like bromances is because strong and open affection between women wouldn't even be seen as unique or special. But generally we're just way behind actually having a lot of works with any relationship with no man needed in the picture as the sole focus.

Even incredibly close friendships between women and men that are just friendships but have that non-romantic-life-partner vibe are practically non-existent. The only one I can think of that's kind of "bromance"-like is Mal and Zoe in Firefly, but that's not even close to being at the forefront of the story the way Kirk & Spock or Sam & Dean or Denny Crane & Alan Shore are.

And whenever a show does have that epic bond between a man and a woman, it almost always becomes romantic if the show goes on long enough - or even if they don't get married, there is occasional sex/a date/cosmic mix-ups that prevent them from dating/explicit, overt in-show acknowledgement that they have romantic feelings for each other.

Booth and Brennan from Bones are the most obvious example, and I think the leads from Castle as well, though I don't follow that.

Yeah, I've had epic friendships with women. I'd like to see portrayals in media. The thing is in the past women would get married off and have to leave their female friends to raise families and be a wife. Hell even then it was great to have friends because they'd support you with that. but men write things.
